• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRPADARINFOTYPES002 - More than one Family infotype subtype ?

  The SAP error message HRPADARINFOTYPES002 indicates that there is an issue with the Family infotype (IT 0021) in the SAP Human Resources module. Specifically, this error occurs when there are multiple subtypes of the Family infotype for a single employee, which is not allowed in the system.
  Cause:
  The error is typically caused by one of the following scenarios:
  
  Duplicate Entries: There are multiple entries for the Family infotype (IT 0021) for the same employee with different subtypes. This can happen if the data was incorrectly entered or if there was a system error during data processing.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration of the infotype in the system may allow for multiple subtypes, but the business rules or the specific implementation may not support this.
  Data Migration Issues: If data was migrated from another system, it may have resulted in duplicate entries that violate the constraints of the SAP system.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Existing Entries:
  
  Use transaction code PA20 (Display HR Master Data) to check the Family infotype (IT 0021) for the employee in question.
  Look for any duplicate entries or multiple subtypes that may exist.
  
  
  
  Delete or Correct Duplicates:
  
  If you find multiple entries, you will need to delete or correct the duplicates. You can do this using transaction code PA30 (Maintain HR Master Data).
  Ensure that only one valid entry exists for the Family infotype for that employee.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:
  
  If the issue persists, review the configuration of the Family infotype in the system. This may require assistance from an SAP HR consultant or someone with access to the configuration settings.
  Ensure that the system is set up correctly to handle the Family infotype according to your organization's requirements.
  
  
  
  Data Migration Review:
  
  If the data was migrated from another system, review the migration process to ensure that it did not create duplicate entries. You may need to clean up the data as part of the migration validation.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or support notes related to HR infotypes for additional guidance on handling this specific error.
